Hampshire College

With professional training and skills in public and media relations, writing and editing, and graphic design, the staff in the communications office serves the external visibility needs of Hampshire College. In the interest of having comprehensive, well-organized public relations efforts, all materials targeted for off-campus distribution should be coordinated through our office—including brochures, news releases, posters, announcements, and more. Exceptions to this policy are on-campus publications produced by student organizations, informal manuals, and other internal publications.

Director of Communications Elaine Thomas serves as the college’s chief public information officer. Media questions or questions about the college’s public relations efforts should be addressed to the director of communications at 413.559.5482 or ethomas@hampshire.edu.

Director of Design for Print and Electronic Communications Kim Holloway oversees production of all college publications. For assistance with or questions about publications, contact the director of design at 413.559.5685 or publications@hampshire.edu.
